People like you help Make-A-Wish® bring lasting, positive change into the lives of critically-ill kids. Your support makes it possible for us to grant their wishes, giving them a reason to stay strong through often difficult treatments and to believe in the promise of a better future. You give them hope and the strength to fight. Though we grant a wish every 35 minutes in the United States, we need to grant a wish every 18 minutes to serve every eligible child. Every single person who supports us by donating, volunteering or referring a child can be part of our mission. Find out more at metrony.wish.org. or wny.wish.org Why Make-A-Wish? Because wishes are more than just a nice thing. They are far more than gifts or singular moments in time. Wishes transform lives and make life better for children and their families. It's a simple but powerful belief that drives every single thing we do.
